14:09. This is why I love John's videos. You never know what you are going to see. Just like a normal guy out fishing. As opposed to a fake, highly edited video.

Because he is aside of he can do it every day because of the youtube show. I wish we had youtube when i was young. It's fantastic for guitar lessons. i learned to play by ear with records and then cassette taped. you can actually really take lessons for free at home now. Surprisingly I played most of the stuff i learned right or close and was able to fine tune by watching other people who were kind enough to record and share their knowledge. Auto repairs also. So thumbs up and subscribe for these people. They deserve the compensation and it beats the hell out of TV with commercials every 10 minutes.

Great stuff man. It’s cool that pretty much anyone can do this kind of fishing in most towns or cities and it relatively budget friendly. Good job! I’ll continue watching

[@1234uz]

I got HOOKED on TOP Water way back in the 1950's as a young boy using the Fred Arbogast " Jitter Bug" just before Dark or early in the Morning in the Summer they EXPLODE on it

[@tenncutt]

I just bought a Jitterbug and a Hula Popper the other day at Wal-Mart. Haven't tried them yet but I'm looking forward to it!

[@fritty9927]

That jitterbug is still the king for night. Black. Caught quite a few large flatheads on Trinity River in Tx. with it too.

[@haraldholmgang9810]

Yep! I started using the Jitter Bug and Hula Popper in the late 70s. Awesome lures this time of year for bass. Those were great times.

[@tenncutt]

@@haraldholmgang9810 yes they were...went and cast that Jitterbug a bit today. Didn't catch anything but I sure like that action!

[@johndeno1071]

Your videos are a nice break from the everyday grind.

[@greenpea9412]

That wait period when a bass strikes is so difficult. My instinct the second I see the water break is to set the hook. So hard to wait that extra second.

[@hilljackoutdoors2808]

Absolutely my biggest delicate, especially with buzz bait. At least with jitter bugs & Spook Jr. I have treble hooks to help me out. LOL

[@brianhearon1930]

50 years ago my dad gave me a Jitterbug and a Humpback Rebel.My tackle box still has them and have caught 100's of fish over the years.That 1st 8 pounder on the Jitterbug or buzzbait will make a believer out of you.Awesome video!!!

[@andrewshuford]

Are these fish ever gonna figure out when John is in the creek to keep mouth shut, lol.

[@random40s]

For top water stuff I've ALWAYS loved the crick hopper, and basically any bates like them, even the crawdads, and little grasshopper poppers. They rock under trees, and always get hammered.

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

The crickhopper is fun when they are aggressive

[@rell517123]

Thank you for another awesome fishing trip Sir 👍👍🎣 Please continue to be careful & stay safe 👍👍😷✌

[@joshuawilson8182]

I like that new creek too. It's so clear. My favorite way to fish. 👍 I'm the same way when it comes to new things but glad your your enjoying it. Cool vid bud.

[@damienheaton7571]

Multiple videos in one week Loving it. Keep it up

[@BackroadsAngling]

So much more rewarding to catch quality bass like this out of a tiny creek as opposed to a lake! Love your work man keep it up!

[@williamgray5770]

I’m starting to see a pattern here Brother. The Whopper Plopper is a great bait. For me it goes back to the Heddon Torpedo. I used them in creeks all my life. Pulled out some really nice fish in areas exactly like where you’re at. They’re great baits with quite an abundance of colors and sizes ..... and half the price. 😃

[@1baby12bear]

Same with me. Old school Torpedo. I put an extra feather tail on to give it the extra it needs to get smallmouth, largemouth, and northerns in my favorite stream. The 6" leader doesn't scare any of them off.

[@fishingthelist4017]

Shhhhh!

[@jameslandrum555]

Me too & the little Pop’R

[@markstaten9526]

i'm buying at least 2 ( 1 will prob live in a tree somewhere)

[@hilljackoutdoors2808]

I liked the old jitter bug we had as kids, and these days I love buzz baits & my Heddon Spook Jr. Fun topwater baits.

[@suburbanangling]

I've been loving the whopper plopper lately too . Gets river fish going good cus so many things swim across the creek naturally anyways plus they love that prop action

[@robertulrich305]

John, you bring joy to my life. God Bless You!!

[@FishingWithBassquatch]

I just moved to Tennessee about a month ago from Colorado. Seeing videos like this make me optimistic about the creeks here. Great content man, tight lines!

[@hilljackoutdoors2808]

Top water bite is always fun. It's really good in the morning before it gets too hot, and in the Spring. I went creek fishing for the 1st time today after work in a small creek close to my house. Caught 1 little fish and had several bites. It was a lot of fun.

[@falcons5683]

Walkin the dog with a Spook is a great way to fish. Also like tiny torpedo,. Jitterbug & Hula Poppers!

[@danielcannaday2207]

good video as always, nothing better than wadding a creek or river during warm weather my favorite way of fishing too

[@skydiver6711]

I fish out of a bass tracker on lakes around Ft. Worth, Texas and an inner tube in the Brazos river and a whopper plopper is my first go-to bait with either the boat or the inner tube. I have caught fish on it all day and then there are times when the top water hit is over about an hour after sunrise, depending on the temperature. I have been creek fishing all my life, and I'll be 70 my next birthday and I have found when you see the fish in those deep holes and they won't hit, then a texas rigged worm works best. I have a color that I just love in those clear creeks and it is called fire and ice. I can't remember what brand, but it is really good in clear water. Still catch a lot of fish on it in the Brazos.

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

Thanks for sharing

[@claudiahorton1476]

Love the Whopper Plopper for river fishing. Nice Snack!

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

[@bige5838]

Top water is the most fun way to fish for large mouth the way the fish explode on the lure is exciting

[@kurtfredregill3324]

Nice looking creeks and some nice fish another great video

[@oldmanfred8676]

It is the seasoning on the chips that makes the difference Girls!

[@monmixer]

I loved to creek fish but i did notice that once summer finally gets well set in I never had much luck with artificial bait. they are much more convincing today. That Hellgarmitte is a killer fake.

[@charleslambert579]

One good rule of thumb for top water is to discipline yourself not to set the hook till you feel the fish. One more thing try letting the bait set for a while before you start your retrieve

[@scottfields716]

Also kayak fishing creeks so much fun.

[@brettjones220]

Man they were smackin the plopper! Nice vid! Thanks! Jonesy

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

You should!

[@Willy231]

Like many other people have suggested, Jitterbug, Hula Popper, or the Buzz Plug by Arbogast are all proven top water baits. Great video like always.

[@carolinafan3489]

i love fishing rivers & spillways that create rivers but i always run into snapping turtles. i’ve caught some big bass, catfish & warmouth in south carolina.

Whopper ploppers are my most used lures, they somehow have become my confidence bait.

Great video and really nice bass in that creek thank you for you hard work and the tips

You made a comment about shade...that’s where you’ll usually find them during the summer. I mix up the Whopper Plopper and Berkeley Choppo. Different sound between the two.

[@garyd6174]

Yea My daughter got me a whopper plopper for Father s day. The first day I used I caught 12 bass in 2 to 3 hours. Hillsborough county Florida. I went out the next day to bass pro shop to get different colors and sizes they were all sold out. I went to Dicks they had a few. I bought 4. Love the action on top. Watch out for gators they like them too.🐟🐟

[@triqpham]

Hey John, not sure if someone has mentioned this yet but you should try the small 60 version of the plopper in these creeks. I bet they’ll work great. Good luck.👍

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

yep they are fun, used them in a few videos

[@samuelwarden6285]

I don't know why but it seems like they hit the whopper plopper style baits more aggressively than some of the other top water lures. Just the anticipation of a blowup when I cast it close to a good spot gets my heart racing lol. 👊👍

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

i know, you just dont know when its going to get hammered

[@jglewis27]

You can't go wrong with the Whopper Plopper.

[@danieltull9583]

People who don't know how to fish

[@huskyfisherman1590]

A good one to try for smaller waters like streams but big enough for bigger fish to bite, I use the Heddon torpedo smaller profile but makes similar presentation. Great video!

[@blakeholmes8691]

Some nice fish John. It’s been too hot for me to fish, but I get a kick out of watching you get em.

[@nickrogers6945]

I started using the whopper ploppers this year and they are awesome and I have like 6 different colors and caught fish on all of them. I’ll go out and just use a whopper plopper or some form of too water lure cause it’s so awesome and exciting to watch them slam that lure.

[@el6700]

[@tomfisher2103]

That creek looks in great shape considering the location in the middle of that area. Nice fishing out there my brother!

[@scottlux2904]

Be sure to try pausing the WP too. It hangs there at the surface nicely. Sometimes the change in action is enough to trigger the hit.

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

i am going to try that next time

[@alinaaseh3679]

Nice work. Consider swapping the treble hooks for single hooks. Safer for the angler, the fish, and makes it more sportsmanlike when you do land one without a net!

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

Good point!

[@YouMe-gx5uu]

The whopper plopper works great in the fall when them big fish come up the rivers and creeks to feed. You will usually catch fish no smaller than 2 pounds every other cast. God Bless.

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

Good to know!

[@juanvaldez5811]

Good work John!

[@sceniccitybassin3704]

Inspire me to get out this summer and try some more creeks. Next time take you a popper or frog

[@jbhusky1671]

Loving the videos! WP is my favorite bait to use but I get better response (so far) by retrieving it like a popper as opposed to the steady retrieve. Of course, I’ve caught a bass on it by just letting it sit after casting too!

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

i will try that

[@tomkeltescheverythingoutdo2379]

I do like these videos. Just like Christopher James said, just a normal guy just fishing. I like this style of fishing. Something I can relate to.....because of no boat. Lol. I don't really need one I guess.
